Events

Match Events

0' KICK OFF: CA Independiente gets underway.
5' Supporters expect more eagerness from Gaston Avila, as he is very good at scoring at Gigante de Arroyito with 1 goals in the last 1 games.
10' It looks like no one’s ball. CA Rosario Central is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
11' It’s a booking for CA Rosario Central player. Vicente Pizarro gets a card.
16' CA Rosario Central is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
21' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
26' The travelling CA Independiente supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
31' CA Independiente is showing some good football. However, CA Independiente are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
34' The referee shows CA Independiente player a card on 34.
36' Gabriel Avalos puts CA Independiente on the lead.
41' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Kevin Lomonaco suffering a number of foals already.
46' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 1 times this season with CA Rosario Central winning 100% of all matches.
47' Goal! Angel di Maria scores his 85 goal in 520 matches.
50' Ignacio Malcorra was booked on 50.
54' Ignacio Malcorra was booked on 54.
59' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 59 minutes.
64' Enzo Gimenez has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 4 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
69' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
74' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. CA Rosario Central needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
79' It’s high time Gustavo Quinteros made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
84' What a strike from Giovanni Cantizano! The score is 2-1.
89' It looks surprising CA Independiente does not make any changes. Milton Valenzuela has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
90' It’s a booking for CA Rosario Central player. Elias Veron gets a card.
Full Time. CA Rosario Central beats CA Independiente
